Hi. I got my Sensation now since the German release. I got it rooted and its runnin CM7. Till this mornin everthing was allright. I switched off wifi for time at work. Now that I´m home my wifi dont starts no more. I tried everything from restorin a backup, reinstalling a clean rom and even reinstall the radio. anyone got some idea??? Probably something is broken?? Thanx
Same thing happened here. I loaded arhd 3.6.4 and WiFi didn't work. I flashed a new kernel (bricked 1.4r) with cwm and it solved it for me

Hi. For now, thanks for the tip. I tried flashing back to original from my provider but it didn't helped me out of this. So I don't think that this could help me out.. I think that my device OS broken..:'( I think I should call Vodafone and ask for a exchange...
Call them or HTC which ever would be quicker.
How you know I went back to the original RUU of Vodafone, with s on and everything. I called them for an exchange. They said that it would take till monday. Yesterday I thought that I wont be with that `naked` phone till that time. I re rooted and restored my backup of Hypersansation. And BAMM my wifi worked! Then I went to upgrade to the newest Hypersensation, the Issue again.....:`( whats that? Now I think trhat it aint a Hardware fault.. What could this be???
Im currently in the middle of uploading a video to youtube to try and show the issue but its like my phone is possessed, i actually bought the phone from a recycle place so I have a 60 days warranty with the phone but I was wondering is there a diagnostic or service mode I can get into on the handset to see if any faults are found
One thing is I thought I was getting an Orange handset which I would have thought would have had some branding on but it didnt and it also didnt have any orange bloatware on but not sure if they do or not on Orange UK handsets? even though i've supercid would it matter if it wasnt an Orange one that I used the orange firmware for 3.32?
It seemed fine when it arrived yesterday on 2.3.4 GB rom but since changing to ICS nothing but bother

Had this problem with Darkforest 6.0.0 and also ARHD 6.5.1 and currently virtuous s4x b3 which has been the worst of the lot and the one in the video
Ok so I flashed back 1.17 firmware and restored a back up of my GB 2.3.4 rom and its working perfectly so my guess is my phone for some reason doesnt like firmware 3.32? which means im going to be pretty much stuck on GB?
Hey, it looks like a sense 4 rom that is running in the video? All those roms are ported from another device.. I'd recommend to try stock ICS with the new firmware, see if that works any better than the ported roms
Ive tried 2 3.6 roms too and they did the same, used the newest firmware

In your first post you were looking for a diagnostic mode?

Sorry yeah i am and thanks, just not sure which tests i should be looking at, anyway im now on virtuous_inquisition v4.0.0 but using firmware 3.24 its had one little hissy fit which seems to have gone away when i restarted, also when it starts acting usual screen of and on seems to sort it, its just odd it works perfectly in GB which makes me think its software and not hardware issues?
Just to confirm im doing everything right, was it ok to jump from firmware 1.17 on GB straight to 3.32 for ICS with 3.6?
Method im doing
flash firmware in hboot, pull battery delete the PG58IMG file, put battery back in boot into recovery, full wipe in ext4, then run the superwipe script and then install rom, everything seems to go ok until I begin having the issues as shown above in the video clip, I know that was a sense 4 rom but its done the same in 3 sense 3.6 roms now
Did you tried to flash a stock kernel? Not OC'ed? My bet if every ROM does the same, that there is an issue with the hardware.

Hi
I havent as yet, however when I first had problems on darkforest I did try with the 1.2ghz option during flash.
Any recommendations on which to try? So far it seems on on v inquisition v4
Seems to have been ok then this morning I put the phone on charge as it was about 20% remaining, left it charging went back 30mins later or so to check it and it wouldnt wake, not sure if this is a common issue or if its related to the previous problems ive been having?
Ive requested a return from the place I bought it so will see, ill have to make sure I can get it back to how it was, fortunately I have a backup, but ill have to read up on the s-on procedure aswell as getting rid of 4ext
gawd this is doing my nut in, just flashed Android Revolution 6.5.1 using the stock 1.2ghz kernal doing the same so I just have no idea now, going to put firmware 1.7 back on and do a nandroid recovery and see how that goes for the next few days, just wondering if anywhere in the rooting + S-off, unlocking or supercid somethings gone wrong that I didnt see, but afaik it all went fine
format sd card, place only the files you will need.. i.e. firmware and your choice of rom.. reboot phone, flash this firmware "Firmware from 3.24.401.1 & 3.25.401.101 RUU" from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618.. after you flash the firmware, remove the sdcard while the phone is still on, reboot into recovery. Once in recovery, put the sdcard back in, then flash whatever rom you wish to use, just make sure that it supports the firmware, after flashing the rom, remove the sdcard again and reboot phone.. once the phone is booted, turn on usb drive and remove the firmware that's on the sdcard and see how things go.. if things are still messed up, then go for an exchange as at that point, it may be hardware related...
I don't think it has anything to do with superCID or s-off as I can see that you're able to flash any rom to the device.. same with s-off...

Thanks, ill give it ago! the only bit is where yousay after flashing firmware remove sdcard whilst on, then reboot into recovery. The only option I get is to reboot no option to reboot into recovery?
anyway
flashed insertcoin 5.1.4 so will see
in order to boot into recovery after flashing the firmware, power off the phone, yank the battery and sdcard, then put the battery back in and power on with the usual power down + power button with the sdcard still out. once in recovery, you will notice that recovery counts down until the sdcard is back in so slip the sdcard back in, give it a sec, then choose the zip file you're going to flash.. flash the rom, remove sdcard and boot into rom.. slip the sdcard back in one final time.. once booted, go into the sdcard and remove the firmware so that it doesn't keep wanting to update everytime you reboot...reboot once more to make sure all is setup and see how it goes.. I'm sure there are easier ways of doing this, but this is one method I've tried and all worked fine... hope this helped..

Still the same, flashed back to 1.17 and did nandroid recovery and it works perfectly in GB oh well, the closest Ive had it working on ics was with Virtuous Inquisition v4.0.0. The problem im going to have returning the handset is that it works perfectly as it was sold to me and if I start going on about installing ics roms etc they are likely to refuse a return.
yay!!! think ive cracked it, well not me but at least I think what ive found what the problem was
Spotted this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542192
Thought what the hell, and long story short its worked, not a single issue like before, which leaves me to believe that for whatever reason 4ext recovery wasnt working correctly when flashing firmwares on my phone as when I used it to restore my original backup it worked fine. Installed the rom above that was packaged as a PG58IMG.zip file and it worked great, might try and reinstall clockworkmod and see if that helps as I never actually used it
Fingers crossed its now sorted but so far so good, not a single issue after installing all my apps again
I searched around and couldn't find a definitive answer. The problem I'm having is connecting to wifi at all.
After getting a phone replacement, I unlocked the bootloader, flashed CWM recovery, rooted, flashed CM 10 nightly 09/29 and GApps but when I booted, I could not connect to wifi at all...I can't even turn on wifi because the toggle is greyed out. I have tried reflashing several times and even tried a different rom. but still no luck. Anyone else have this problem or know how I can fix it? I rely heavily on wifi because of ****ty data in my dorm. Any help would be much appreciated!

Hello,
What was the version of software on you phone before rooting, was it a T-Mobile phone? The newest version for T-Mobile has created is issues for roms that aren't the same version.

Yep, just found out that was the issue. kinda sucks because I'd rather have jelly bean! Oh well guess I'll deal with no wifi till a fix comes out.
why does the Ruu not work anymore i want to take my phone back to where the wifi works..... i have a cwm backup from before the update but that did not even fix the problem
____EDIT____
Well i got the wifi back. ( and the OTA update ? again )
Relocked the phone boot loader
I opened the RUU
took the Rom.zip from the folder.
took the stock recovery img
flashed the stock recovery img
start the phone back up
downloaded the update again. ( 4.0.4 )
did all the waiting etc
phone powers down reboots applies the updates to it self.
powers back up updating completed
WIFI WORKING.
go to try and do the ruu.exe again but no it says error 140( i think ) wrong bootloader version.
This update changes the bootloader to version 1.14___ So now the phone is non tamperd and says relocked so back to stock ( YAY )(((for now))))( i think lol )
Most importantly the Wifi is working.
If anyone wants i can take and give the files from the RUU ( not the whole zip but what ever img's you want from it ) Just send me a PM i will mail it to ya.

So did you use the 1.84 ruu? And you did this after applying the tmobile ota?
I got my one SV k2_cl from boost a little over a month ago and got the bootloader unlocked and rooted, working fine until one morning it wouldn'tmake calls or texts. I tried to factory reset and when I tried to boot got stuck at the HTC logo. Took me 2 weeks to get it to even flash a Rom on here that will somewhat work. I've got WiFi and partial 3g 4g connectivity but no voice at all. When I try to use the phones its activation tool-error, tried manually programming phone- nothing. I'm stumped. Can someone please help me out here. Don't want to have to buy another phone if I can help it. The only guess I've got at the moment is that if I could get a stock original rom to flash I'd be good to go probably and just hold out on doing anything else to it until after the kitkat ota is launched. The few stock roms I've tried either wouldn't download for some reason or just won't flash right. Thanks in advance for any help guys. I've always been more of a hardware geek more so than software but I can usually muddle through following guides of course.
I'm not much into boost, but did you try to flash the available RUU?
help...
As a matter of fact I have tried that and unfortunetly the installer locked up on a reboot of the phone because the phone wants to do the "Android is upgrading # of #" on every boot. That was why I was thinking since adb/fastboot and the HTC One Toolkit all sorta work that if I could get ahold of a working stock rom to flash on there and I have a stock CWM backup still on my laptop from when I first got the phone rooted and everything working. But of course thanks for the tip anyway. I wish that would work. It seems to be the easiest way to install back to stock.
I need help. I know very little about the android stuff even though I have had the phone nearly 3 years I think. I got a problem of flashing(my first experience of flashing the firmware). Let me put it in details. I have xperia SL. My friend helped flash a new custom rom (MIUI) so my phone was rooted and unlocked bootloader. because there were always problems happening( not smooth, and apps always stopped working during they were in the process) while I was using the MIUI Rom. I decided to flash it by myself to firmware I had before, but I did a lot of reading about it before I did it, but I don't think i understand all. Before it was flashed, it had the stock: LT26ii_6.2.B.1.96. I tried to look for this one. But I could find only the firmware for Xperia S. I tried, but during flashing problems happened it said something like flashing aborted, I don't know why. when I turn my phone on it displayed only reparing picture on screen...then I tried to turn it off by holding volumn up key and power button for 10 seconds and tried to flash another frimware but It is the old version: LT26ii_6.1.A.2.55_1266-9957_Singapore by xdaNomNomM. It worked this time. I looked for the firmware of LT26ii_6.2.B.1.96 and I got one it is LT26ii_6.2.B.1.96_Generic. I decided to flash my phone again. Yes, flashing process till the end was fine. I didn't see any error message or something. But after flashing, I disconnect it and turned it on because I got the message to do so. It displayed the repairing image again, don't know what is wrong. I decided to flash it again using the old firmware again 4.0.4 it works and now I am stuck using the ICS, not really satified with it. Anyone can help provide the links to download the firmware LT26ii_6.2.B.1.96 that work for me? and can you tell what could be the problems while I was flashing? what should I do to my phone now, keep it like that?
Thank in advance! Sorry that I write a lot for you to read and sorry to disturb you all!
